An Ode to the House Cat
Oh, the house cat
Pretty and fluffy
Your eyes like green sea glass
Hair as soft as a baby's behind
With four cute little paws
And whiskers so long
The way you stalk
Up and down the windowsill
Silently moving, twitching your tail
Ever so craving that rush
The rush of catching and pouncing
Daydreaming in the sun
Dreams of mice and rabbits
Catching and killing
Chomp Chomp Chomp
Great job. This was cute and fun!
ReplyDeleteI've always wondered what goes on in cat's heads. Usually you can almost always tell what a dog's motivation is, but cat's seem to be lost in their own world 99 percent of the time. Good ode!
ReplyDeleteCats are kind of a dichotomy. On one hand, they are "cute" and worthy of comparisons to a child's soft parts. However, there's also something wild and dangerous in them. They ARE killers. Even if they are "inside only" cats, I bet they spend a large part of their day staring out of windows and wishing they could kill things. :)
